AGA T2 leaking :(

[redv]

Been vaping for a while but new to rebuildables.

I eagerly awaited my T2 but I cannot seem to get it to stop leaking. Basically, no matter how tight I screw the nuts on the centre shaft, it doesn't seem to hold the tank firmly enough - perhaps as it's screwing onto a silicon seal in the centre. Mine has the translucent seals in the top and bottom of the tank, but the glass seems to wiggle with ease which I guess is what's causing the leaks.

Have I missed something?

The nuts are seperate kind of. Turn the top above the tank to titen it up. I think its that way so you can place the wick where you want it. I have mine by the screen so i tip it the same way all the time. Dont forget to have the air hole at the coil to when it get it going.

Sorry forgot to add "dont overtiten it", you dont want to break your tank or mess up the gaskets.

Something is definitely amiss.

Have you completely tore down the AGA, piece by piece, before filling it with liquid? Why I ask is, I have two AGAs and none of them have leaked, and the fit is snug to not allow the class tank to wiggle.

You are going to have to completely tear down your tank, I believe, and reassemble it. The top is secured by center positive post thumb screws and negative post screw. If I recall I had to remove all of the screws to take the tank apart and wash it. Please keep track of what screw goes where, and not lose anything.

Before adding any liquid again, check the tank and top for any play or movement. If there is some, something's still not right.

Thanks guys... looking at it apart it seems to be missing the central column. The question is, did I not get one, or did I lose it before I even started. I'm going to make an assumption here and go looking for it
